The challenge: Each author sent to the Moderator a description of a story idea they would like to see written. Then each of those same authors were sent at random one of the story ideas and had 1 month to finish and turn it in.

Summary: Set a scene or fanfic from any of the Universes in the middle of a Convention. It can be a sci-fi, comic, manga or anime (or all of them) convention. The geekier the inhabitants, the stranger the happenings, the better. The team can be in either uniform or civilian clothing.

For inspiration, here are a few phrases, inspired by past conventions. These are for inspirational only, they do not have to be included:

*Needed a shower 2 weeks ago*Food priced like gold*All Night *insert kind* film/anime viewing*Panels that must have been inspired after an all-night drinking party*"Where did you get that!"*Free toy giveaway feeding frenzy*Duct TapeCategories:Gatchaman, Battle of the Planets, G-Force: GOS, Eagle RidersCharacters: None

I'm not generally much for challenges but I thought that this onemight just be interesting.

Tell a complete story in no more than 1000 words, one with abeginning, middle and end. One that goes somewhere. One that stands onits own two (or four, or 100 rocket propelled legs) feet -- ie noextracts of bigger works and no need for a person to refer to anythingelse you may have written to 'get' it better.

Tell it about anything at all that's construable as Gatch related.

Tell it between September 15th and October 31st. Look forward toseeing what happens.
